Not useable in sunlight

Element Optics HYPR-7 7x50mm Rifle Scope
Make no mistake. This isn't a prism scope with a holographic LED display, like your pistol or rifle red dot which you can turn up to daylight bright.
This is a prism scope with a transparent OLED screen in it.
Transparent OLEDs are a cool technology, but they are not bright. On a sunny day, even with the polarizing screen in place, you will only barely be able to see the reticle even against the darkest backgrounds. Against a light background, well, forget it.
Also, the mount is just bad. No recoil lugs. But that doesn't matter, because the scope itself is an expensive paperweight. Spare yourself the annoyance, and stay away.

Almost impossible to install

AIM Sports Inc Keymod Rail Covers
Yes, they are supposed to fit tightly, but even a hammer is not enough to pound these onto most keymod handguards. They simply do not allow for enough thickness in even the lightest and thinnest of quality rails.

Solid, but not as versitile as it could be

TangoDown Vertical Fore Grip QD, Surefire
Clearly high quality, locks up tight to a pic rail with a good range of tension adjustment. Compartment cap fits tightly and seems watertight.
Tapeswitch slot is exactly calibrated for Surefire, however, and most likely won't fit any other type of tapeswitch.

Pricey. Good.

If you want an a true 1-power LPVO that goes up to 10x and has adjustable parallax, your choices are:
- This scope.
- This scope, but with a different reticle.
Glass is excellent, clear, no colouration, no distortion through the full range of adjustment. Adjustments are precise, turrets are high-quality with highly positive clicks, but they don't lock, and the paint on the numbers has a tendency to fade under heavy handling, making them hard to read. Easy to set zero and zero stop. Parallax adjustment is smooth, easy, and goes all the way down to ten meters.
Illumination is a bit lackluster. Not terrible, but not truly daylight-bright.

Very good for minimal feature set

Mininmal features, such as the lack of a quick detach mount, keep these rings very light and low profile. They are easy to mount, easy to tighten properly, and hold zero through rough use. Generally, inexpensive gear is a mistake, but these are an exception. Highly recommended if you don't need QD.
